What problems have been found with the AdBlue system on Citroen C3?
Years 2009-2016

Answer

It has been frequently reported that on the Citroen C3, despite topping up the AdBlue fluid, it continues to signal that the additive needs to be added. The problem is due to a fault in the AdBlue tank sensor, but unfortunately Citroen does not provide for the replacement of only the sensor but rather the entire tank complete with pump and sensor, at a cost of approximately 800 euros.
